dave taylor last closing time şarkı sözleri
A widescreen TV fills the space
There where my grandad drank his ale
With lifestyle statements all around
The house that once was the Rose and Crown
Where once we sat and dreamed a dream
In the alehouse by the village green
Along the roads across the shire
All gathered round that welcome fire
What's gone is gone for ever more
As another alehouse shuts its door
Where hearts of oak sing a requiem
We shall not see your like again
How have we let things come this far
When they call last orders at the bar
And what can we call yours and mine
As the landlord calls last closing time
As the landlord calls last closing time
Across the years and down the lane
There came the Saxon and the Dane
To lay the dust on summer nights
We sat and put the world to rights
Twas there we talked of many things
The fate of radishes and Kings
Till slowly all our troubles passed
Towards the bottom of a glass
What's gone is gone for ever more
As another alehouse shuts its door
Where hearts of oak sing a requiem
We shall not see your like again
How have we let things come this far
When they call last orders at the bar
And what can we call yours and mine
As the landlord calls last closing time
As the landlord calls last closing time
But now, alas we must trust our fate
To the men from the conglomerate
Or those who tell us what we want
Is another cafe restaurant
Tesco deals in cheap six packs
Brewer's rents and government tax
While accountants with their swivel eyes
Hover round the corpse like flies
What's gone is gone for ever more
As another alehouse shuts its door
Where hearts of oak sing a requiem
We shall not see your like again
How have we let things come this far
When they call last orders at the bar
And what can we call yours and mine
As the landlord calls last closing time
As the landlord calls last closing time
I've heard it said, all things must pass
So come let's raise a parting glass
And what can we call yours and mine
When the landlord called last closing time
When the landlord calls last closing time
When the landlord calls last closing time
